“Now, Now” lays out the thesis for Marry Me: a direct attack on your preconceived notions, whatever those notions might be.
[Verse 1]
(I'm not) Your mother's favorite dog
(I'm not) The carpet you walk on
(I'm not) One small atomic bomb
[Pre-Chorus]
(I’m not) Any, any, any, any, any, any
Anything at all
[Verse 2]
(I'm not) The feather at your feet
(I'm not) Your yellow brick street
(I'm not) Anyone you'll see
[Pre-Chorus]
(I’m not) Any, any, any, any, any, any, any
Anything
[Chorus]
Now, now
Now, now
Now, now
(You don't mean that, say you're sorry)
(You don't mean that, say you're sorry)
(You don't mean that, say you're sorry)
(You don't mean that)
I'll make you sorry
[Verse 3]
(I'm not) The pawn to your king
(I'm not) Your world on a string
(I'm not) Anyone you'll beat
[Pre-Chorus]
(I'm not) Any, any, any, any, any, any, any
Anything
Any, any, any, any, any, any, any
Anything
[Chorus]
Now, now
Now, now
Now, now
(You don't mean that, say you're sorry)
(You don't mean that, say you're sorry)
(You don't mean that, say you're sorry)
(You don't mean that)
I'll make you sorry
[Outro]
(You don't mean that, say you're sorry)
(You don't mean that, say you're sorry)
(You don't mean that, say you're sorry)
(You don't mean that, say you're sorry)
(You don't mean that, say you're sorry)
